512MB 6800 Ultra Extreme too.

lol i was surprised too

Didn't see anny point to posting a pic, its the same as the x85o with some more ram chips.

that crazy sock oOo:

of course, of course...

lol this is just ridiculous..then again, if you bought one now, you wouldnt need a new one for another 5 years.

I'd say about 8 months

no..you wouldnt NEED one for a few years, but yes in probably 8-12 months there will be a new one out. but shit, i have the x800 xt, i wont NEED to get a new one for at LEAST 3 years.

How do you guys have so much money for this stuff? Dont any of you realize it doesnt makea noticable difference, at the rate you guys are buying video cards? I mean, stepping up from a GeForce 3 to a newer one will give you a dramatic increase, but jeeze, you guys already think its time to upgrade your 9700's. THEY'RE FINE. You will see a minimal difference, like maybe dust particles, and that for sure is not worth the extra $400. Seems everyones desperate to get the highest FPS..to get 20 FPS instead of 17.

Sorry, just my little rant.

eek:

Try doom 3 on a 9700 with max settings then try it on an x800xt-pe with max settings, i went from a 9500pro to an x800 and there was a shitload of difference. I prefer to play games (sp usually) with everything cranked way up, these days you can get games and crank them up to their max out of the box, a few years ago that wasn't the case.

getting 20fps would suck. yeah like gerv said, good luck running doom 3 on the settings i use on a 9700.

holy jebus when is that bad larry coming out?
